DAY 1:
UK to Rome Fly to Italy’s capital and a transfer to the 3* Hotel Torre Rossa Park (or similar) on the city’s outskirts for dinner and a chance to meet fellow travellers. (D) |
DAY 4: Pompeii & Vesuvius The eruption of Vesuvius in AD79 engulfed Pompeii in a cloud of ash and lava, creating the finest monument and most complete record of everyday life in the Roman Empire to be found anywhere. A guided tour takes you to the mosaics, shops, villas, theatres and streets of this city, before a visit to the mighty volcano itself that broods mightily over the Bay of Naples. NB - Entrance fees for Pompeii and Vesuvius are not included, however, discounts may apply. (B,D) |
DAY 2: Rome A full day to explore the Eternal City, with an included guided tour of St Peter’s Basilica and the stunning Sistine Chapel, all guarded by the colourful Swiss Army. The rest of the day is yours to see the endless sights of this wonderfully romantic place, including the Vatican, the huge Colosseum, the Spanish Steps and the Trevi Fountain, where you can toss in a coin for good luck. (B,D) |
